History of Luxury Chess Sets
Luxury chess sets have a long and storied history that begins roughly in the 15th century. During these earliest centuries of chess, specialized chess sets were exclusive to those who could afford to have their own personal chess boards made. These specialized chess sets featured highly detailed designs, exquisite materials, as well as luxury finishes which all combined to create truly tasteful and high-class chess sets. If you take a look at genuine luxury antique chess sets on any auction site, you will quickly realize just how beautiful a chess set can really be.
While standardized chess sets in the 19th century made chess more accessible to the masses, particularly once chess sets began to be made in factories which then resulted in lower and lower prices, wealthy chess players continued to commission and purchase luxury chess sets for their own private use. Luxury sets became another way for chess players to highlight their passion for the game; having the means and drive to collect high-end chess sets was a surefire way for someone in the 19th or even early 20th century to indicate their dedication to the game.

Modern Luxury Sets
It should come as no surprise that luxury chess sets have remained popular in the modern era. People love elegance, and chess players are no exception.
